Why class still matters in UK newsrooms
Listen now
Description
In this episode of our podcast we look at how class divisions impact newsrooms and the journalism they produce. We discuss why journalists from working-class backgrounds are so under-represented in British newsrooms and the types of prejudice and micro-aggressions they face. We discuss complexities in measuring progress and how newsroom managers can create a better environment for a more diverse workforce.
